Cookware guide
Most heat resistant, nonmetallic cookware issafe for use in your microwave oven. However, to test
cookware before using,followthese steps:
1. Place the empty cookware in the microwave oven.
2. Measure 1cup (250ml) water ina glass measuring cup and place it in the oven beside the cookware.
3. Microwave on 100% power for 1 minute. If the dish is warm, it should not be usedfor microwave cooking.
Operating safety precautions
• Never lean on the door or allow a child to swing on it when thedoor is open.
• Use hot pads. Microwave energydoes not heat containers, but the heat from thefood can make the
container hot.
• Do not use newspaper or other printed paper inthe oven.
• Do not dry flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, paper, gourds, or clothes in the oven.
• Do not start a microwave oven when it is empty. Product life may be shortened. Ifyou practice programming
the oven, put a container of water in the oven. Itis normal for the oven door to lookwavy after the oven has
been runningfor a while.
• Do not try to melt paraffin wax in the oven. Paraffin wax will not melt in a microwave oven because it allows
microwaves to pass through it.
• Do not operate the microwave oven unless the glass turntable is securely in place and can rotate freely. The
turntable can rotate in either direction. Make sure the turntable is correct-side up in the oven. Handle your
turntable with care when removing it from the oven to avoidpossibly breaking it. If your turntablecracks or
breaks, contact your dealer for a replacement.
• When you use a browning dish, the browning dish bottom must be at least 3/16 inch above the turntable.
Followthe directions supplied with the browning dish.
• Never cook or reheat a whole egg inside the shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause them to burst,
and possiblydamage the oven. Slice hard-boiled eggs before heating. In rare cases, poached eggs have
been known to explode. Cover poached eggs and allow a standing time of one minute before cutting into
them.
• For best results, stir any liquid several times during heating or reheating. Liquids heated in certain
containers (especially containers shaped likecylinders) may become overheated. The liquidmay splash out
with a loud noise during or after heating or when adding ingredients (coffee granules, tea bags, etc.). This can
harm you or damage the microwave oven.
• Microwaves may not reach the center ofa roast.The heat spreads to the center from the outer, cooked
areas just as in regular oven cooking. This is one of the reasons for letting some foods (forexample, roasts or
baked potatoes) stand for a while after cooking, or forstirring some foods during the cooking time.
• Do not deep fry in the oven. Microwavable utensils are not suitable and it is difficultto maintain appropriate
deep-frying temperatures.
• Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the recommended cooking time, potatoes should be slightly firm
because they will continue cooking during standing time. After microwaving, let potatoes stand for 5
minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.
Electrical connection
I If yourelectric power line or outlet voltage is less than 110 volts, cooking times may be longer. Have a
qualified electrician check your electrical system.
